Tripoli WAP Service Gateway Project presentation11.10.2000
Project • An explorative project to see whether we can make a WAP -killer application in ideal conditions • Free WAP-Gateway • Free GSM/SMS time (2000 mins/month Elisa City) • Backbone and ready-to-use services (Trimedia) • Tons of usable information • webtopi, calendar, busschedules, caféteria menus • Technically oriented clients (students and staff)
Building the killer HUT WAP app • Trimedia WML/HTTP module • Calypso WAP server integration • Killer-app generation process • Trimedia service that gives largest possible coverage and useability. • Usage survey – is it a killer app?
Trimedia WML/HTTP Module • Addon and modification to already present HTTP module, so that Trimedia can handle (at least some) WAP-clients • preferably the most common models of WAP-clients • Testing WAP compatibilty of existing Trimedia services such as bus schedules, cafeteria menues and campus event calendar. • Is it possible to write a generic styleguide/XSLT?
Calypso WAP server integration • Need help from Mikko Fallenius • Server up and running • Problem with ISDN card. • Need to upgrade NT to Win2K server • Ericsson Terminals possibly through Prof. Mäntylä
Killer Application 1/2 • Technically • New service to Trimedia • Programmed in Java • Relies on Trimedia’s database • Connects to Trimedia using CORBA
Killer Application 2/2 • Ideally • Provides a new service or a new or better use for existing service • Uses knowledge of clients location • Provides up-to-date or updated information to clients (push?)
Resources needed 1/2 • WAP Gateway (Calypso) • IP-network • Static IP-address • Ports 1099, 9200-9203 open all route • WAP-terminals • SIM:s to terminals • Access to Trimedia services • Development environment
Resources Needed 2/2 • SMS • Username and passwordto SMSC from Elisa • SMS from terminal to Tripoli: WAP Serves specs say in several places that server can send messages to SMSC, but can it receive it. Can we do requests via SMS ? • The way we see it is that there are two separate ways to do it: • Our own servicenumber • Our own service under Elisas service which is identified by a ’keyword’. For example(in SMS): TRIPOLI RUOKA TF
